BORN TO CLIMB

Kevin began climbing as a toddler - trees, fences, cupboards, ladders, everything. At age 10, he discovered rock climbing when he attended the grand opening of his local climbing gym.

By age 19, Kevin was the top ranked climber for his age in the country. He then turned his focus toward establishing the most beautiful and dangerous boulder problems in the world.

In 2009, he began work on the Dawn Wall project with Tommy Caldwell. On January 14, 2015 - after 19 days on the wall and six years of work - Tommy and Kevin succeeded on what's being called the world's hardest climb.
